Carefully

lift

the

microprocessor

straight

up

and

out

of

the

socket,

and

place

it

on

a

static-protective

surface.

If

you

are

instructed

to

return

the

microprocessor,

follow

all

packaging

instructions,

and

that

are

supplied

to

you.

Installing

a

microprocessor

and

heat

sink

The

following

notes

describe

the

type

of

microprocessor

that

the

server

supports

and

other

information

that

you

must

consider

when

you

install

a

microprocessor

and

heat

sink:

v

The

server

supports

up

to

two

Intel

Xeon

dual-core

or

quad-core

microprocessors.

See

http://www.lenovo.com/thinkserver

for

a

list

of

supported

microprocessors.

v

Do

not

mix

dual-core

and

quad-core

microprocessors

in

the

same

server.

v

The

upgrade

of

microprocessors

are

not

supported

on

this

server.

For

example,

if

the

server

came

with

a

2.0

GHz

microprocessor,

you

cannot

upgrade

the

microprocessor

to

a

2.3

GHz

microprocessor,

it

is

not

supported.

v

The

first

microprocessor

must

always

be

installed

in

microprocessor

socket

1

on

the

system

board.

v

When

one

microprocessor

is

installed,

a

heat

sink

filler

is

not

required

for

microprocessor

socket

2,

however,

the

microprocessor

2

air

baffle

and

the

DIMM

air

baffle

must

be

installed

to

provide

proper

system

cooling.

v

Do

not

remove

the

first

microprocessor

from

the

system

board

when

you

install

the

second

microprocessor.

v

When

you

install

the

second

microprocessor,

you

must

also

install

additional

memory.

v

To

ensure

proper

server

operation

when

you

install

an

additional

microprocessor,

use

microprocessors

that

have

the

same

QuickPath

Interconnect

(QPI)

link

speed,

integrated

memory

controller

frequency,

core

frequency,

power

segment,

internal

cache

size,

and

type.

v

Mixing

microprocessors

of

different

stepping

levels

within

the

same

server

model

is

supported.

v

When

mixing

microprocessors

with

different

stepping

levels

within

the

same

server

model,

you

do

not

have

to

install

the

microprocessor

with

lowest

stepping

level

and

features

in

microprocessor

socket

1.
